picked up mine yesterday.
If it fits as good as it looks, I'll be extremely happy

I don't think you'll notice a huge difference in sound. But here's hoping it'll at least be a bit throatier

Got x pipe installed. Had to modify the cross beam a little bit because the right pipe was touching. No biggie, they heated up the cross beam and bent it down a bit. The car is much louder, pops and burps like crazy now. Revs seem to climb a bit quicker too. So far I am happy with the purchase. My set up is AA headers, RE X pipe, Meisterschaft Race cans.

I wonder if by "cross beam" he means the rear diagonal braces?
Those would be very easy to lower a bit by modifying the center drop mount bolt & add shims.

That would be ok. I could handle that i believe. Crossing fingers. But it looks like on everything I see there is 2" to 3" between the braces and the stock pipe. The braces are so close to the cans that if it were up that high there is no way they would connect unless they bend drastically at the end. Im at work so I cant tell that right now. Doesnt look like they do in my pictures.

The right pipe was touching part of the reinforcement plate. They heated and pulled the plate down (its aluminum) about 1/4 inch and we were good. Keep in mind this was just on my car. Does not mean the same will happen to you. |

Installing now. Have to take pipe off from header back. Think I can reuse the donuts from the header? I have no new ones laying around.

Cig break: Almost impossible to remove x-pipe from section 2 w/o removing whole piece. Removing rear braces and undoing front bolts from section one and headers next.

^I agree, it's much easier to separate section 2 & X-pipe off the car, on the floor.

Rasp city. I dont like it. Shit. Ill drive till fall to check it out. No driving impressions yet just sound(rasp)
EDIT: Norasp when it is warm. I like it now. A little more mid-range power too. Before(halfway warm) After And now After with the fully car warmed up....took up to 4800 rpm Here is where the pipe was rubbing. I had a buddy with a press put a small (1/4") bend for a bout 3". Still wasnt enough so I purchased two washers and put them under the plate. Worked well. The red circle is the rub area. The red line is where I bent the plate out. The yellow circles is where the washers went. [IMG] Uploaded with ImageShack.us[/IMG]
